Pricing programs
for web design projects in the personal care and spa
industry |
|
In the personal care and wellness industry, the websites typically need to be highly customized for your needs, and therefore, the prices that web design firms charge should reflect that. Based on the level of commitment required and resources needed, the design firm should charge its clients. This enables the client to pay for the level of work done on their website. It also allows the web design firm to make sure that they get paid for whatever work they do.
While it may hurt in some cases, in general, it works out well for everyone. Fixed price web design projects (particularly if creative design is
involved, don't work too well. The designers are in a hurry to do the very minimum to finish the project and move on to the next one. The client also ends up getting a template-based design with hardly any scope for reflecting their unique image. If the client does not like any specific part of the design, nothing much can be done.
Many web design firm will sometimes base their prices on building a lasting relationship with the client. They follow this practice for marketing and consulting engagements since it allows them to capitalize their initial work into an ongoing stream of revenue. If you are not running a content website that changes daily, it is much better to let an outside firm manage your website. The technology changes so fast that only an expert firm can keep up. A full time web designer on your staff may not work out very well. |
